ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for installing communications cable and splices in the cable. The method involves suspending the cable from poles so that a cable to be spliced terminates adjacent a desired pole in a loop of a length insufficient to reach the ground. A work platform assembly is installed on the pole in a position spaced from the platform and is leveled. A worker is suspended adjacent to the work platform on a support independent of the work platform. From the independent support a splicing device is mounted on the work platform, an end of the looped cable is organized in the splicing tool, the end of a second, third or fourth cable is organized in the splicing tool and the splice formed, all from the independent support. The support, worker, and work platform are then removed. The pole supported platform includes a planar work surface supported in an adjustable spaced relationship to the pole. The work platform is part of a collapsible assembly which is light in weight and adapted to support equipment but not workers.
